Paris
Romeo wants to marry Juliet. Lord Capulet thinks it's a bad idea because he believes Juliet is too young and that the marriage might be rushed. He also prefers Paris as a suitable match for his daughter.
Capulet never said he didn't want Juliet to marry Romeo. Nobody ever suggested the idea to him. As we hear in Act 1 Scene 5, Capulet has a pretty high opinion of Romeo as it turns out, and he might have reacted positively to the idea. His attitude was not that he didn't want Juliet to marry Romeo so much as that he really wanted her to marry Paris.
By comparing Paris to a book, Lady Capulet encourages Juliet to consider him as a potential suitor for marriage. She uses the analogy to suggest that Paris is a suitable match with good qualities that would make him a desirable husband for Juliet. She hopes that Juliet will be receptive to the idea and ultimately agree to marry Paris.
The first character to mention the idea of marriage in "Romeo and Juliet" is Lady Capulet, who discusses the prospect of Juliet marrying Paris with her daughter.
He decides they should get married.
Capulet has no idea that Romeo had married Juliet or that he even intended to until after they both were dead. At that time he was of course unhappy that Juliet was dead, but felt that he would rather have her alive and married to Romeo, who he agrees to build a statue to.
Juliet does not want to marry Paris, but she has to otherwise Lord Capulet will disown her.
Juliet says she hadn't thought much about marriage."It is an honour that I dream not of." She is open to the idea though."I'll look to love if looking liking move."
When Capulet says "Death is my son-in-law," he is referring to the idea that death has taken Juliet as his bride, meaning she has passed away. He is expressing his grief and acknowledging the finality of Juliet's death.
The nurse is present to provide support and guidance to Juliet. She is like a mother figure to Juliet and is involved in her life, so she accompanies Lady Capulet to help with the conversation and to ensure that Juliet is comfortable.
Juliet is supposed to be 'the perfect daughter' and do exactly as her father says. When she refuses, Lord Capulet is angry that he had gone through the trouble of finding her a husband and she won't agree to it.
In "Romeo and Juliet," patriarchal society is evident through the dominance of male figures like Lord Capulet and Lord Montague, who dictate the actions and decisions of their families. Women are expected to obey their fathers and husbands, such as Juliet adhering to her father's wishes to marry Paris. The societal norms uphold the idea of male authority and control over women's lives.
At first he doesn't think it's a good idea because she's too young and is his only child, but if Paris can sweep her off her feet when he has the ball then yes. The first time Paris offers for her hand in marriage Capulet says if he can sway her to love him Paris may marry Juliet. The second time Paris offers for her hand Capulet accepts on Juliet's behalf and sets the wedding for Thursday of that week.
